Fractional Josephson Vortices and Braiding of Majorana Zero Modes in Planar Superconductor-Semiconductor Heterostructures

Fractional Josephson Vortices and Braiding of Majorana Zero Modes in Planar Superconductor-Semiconductor Heterostructures

We consider the one-dimensional (1D) topological superconductor that may form in a planar superconductor-metal-superconductor Josephson junction in which the metal is is subjected to spin orbit coupling and to an in-plane magnetic field. This 1D topological superconductor has been the subject of recent theoretical and experimental attention. We examine the …
